gmap-helpers v2.1.0

gmap-helpers

gmap-helpers is a tiny wrapper around the google maps API. It is made for users like me who usually only have to embed a map on a contact page. The existing API from Google itself is awesome, but I always forget the little details like: Why doesn't a click on a marker with a URL open the URL?

This library does all this automatically for you, which is great for simlpe maps.

Usage

npm install gmap-helpers

import GMap from "gmap-helpers";

const canvas = document.getElementById("map");
const pos = new google.maps.LatLng("50.937531", "6.960278600000038");
const options = {
  zoom: 4,
  maxZoom: 18,
  center: pos,
  disableDefaultUI: true
};

const map = new GMap(canvas, options);
const marker = map.placeMarker({
  position: pos,
  url: "https://example.com/"
});
